I have both a datsun and a mustang. BS that you cant work on both. I could, they are easy as hell to work on. You are telling me that you cant make one drivable?!?!?!? This is how you do it. You drive the Mustang around while you semi complete the Z. Once the Z is running and registered, stop the mustang and work on it. since you have been driving the mustang for a while. You know WTF is wrong with it and fix it. Drive the z for a while and figure out its bugs while you work on the mustang. Once your done with the mustang, then paint the z or whatever you need to do... SIMPLE!!!! This is how my yard looked... from this to this to this then both the datsun and mustang ran and we moved to a new location to this then my brothers 240sx broke down then my truck broke down again after I am done with it. The Mustang is next yet again... We just rotate the cars around. It need alot of work, new window seals, leaf springs, dif, suspension, wheels, tires, some body work etc...

I need them washers that the ball joint 78 has on the uppper control arms. there are 4 in total. How much?

DaMN! Its in pretty bad shape. All the drivetrain is there and maybe it has a 5 speed. The head I think is a W58 and the engine is an L series but not sure what size. The front has the chrome billet grill that Steroid has on his choptana. Peace!

What about them sweeet wheels! LOL! I am more interested in little things. Is it ok to take a looky loo and see what I can find and need? What I really need is probably the heater valve, headliner, visors, glove box, fuel line from the frame to the fuel filter, Hmmmm..... Fuse cover, hmmmmmm.... a small cover that covers a hole in the bed. Just small stuff but what I really need is some good sun visors and that fuel line. Mines are rotted. Thanks! Damn... O well... You sold it.

Mines too going to try and make it. Good luck!

Nice!

This is how you put the new bushing on. Installed.

Taking off the lower control arm bushing today... Again... Here are some pics on how to do it. I used the spring compressor tool from auto zone, a washer roughly the same diameter as the bushing and a pipe bigger than the bushing. Sore muscles is what I have right now.

Ol geoug datson. The previous owner named it like that.

Dad? daaaddd?! You should see this..... DAD! WHAT!!!! I bet he wanted his son to STFU!!! Cus that car sounds neat!

why don't you freeze them overnight and see if they shrink. Also I think there is a steel collar you can take out from the arms to have some more room. I chiseled mine out. There could be one. Be carefull!

Weee!!!!

Yep... Just waiting till saturday/sunday for clear skys!

Dang ben that is sweeaaaat! Next time you head out let us know. I bet my bro would be really interested. :P

Its not that hard to take out the shafts from the upper arms, but you do need a press to take it out. If interested let me know. I can teach you

How are the seat belts? Are they sticking out side out inside?

Common man, cheer up. Think about it like this. After she graduates and she gets a nice job. She can buy you all the Datsun parts you want!

The only company who makes them is called Addco and its sucks. You can buy it and if you make it work tell me cus I dont fucken get it at all. Worst 200$ ever spent... Instead I got some awesome advice from Yello620 and doing what he did on his truck. Maybe 50$ 100$ tops? Or you can gets the PCD bars... Fuck it install both if you like. JUST DONT BUY THE ADDCO UNLESS YOU WANT TO SUFFERRRRRR!!!!

Geez.... I wont say it but you are such a ..... Contact him threw craigslist.

Nah man, I cant do that. Its not in me. If I build something, I pour my soul into it. I just cant flip it. If it was locally like were Bonvo lived, I would of snagged it up already. He has space I think. They took his old baby away. Plus he could use some of its parts on his new 610 like the alt and electrical stuff... Common Bonvo! O well... If you get it good luck and such. We do have an abundant amount of Datsuns.... BUT AT A HIGH PRICE!!!! This is probably a once every 5 years type of thing. Another offer will come along.

What are you talking about man. It's a 6 hours from were I live to Antioch ca. I only have 300$ in my bank account and I know Bonvo is broke too. I can make that car run in 3 days!!!!! I know Bonvo can too!!! If I had cash, I would go over there and drive it home that same day. How hard is it to take a built engine and put it in? 3 hours???? Rusty fuel tank? Nothing that a 5 gallon gas tank cant fix. Bad tires? I can get new ones anywhere. Windows not on? Some window glue will hold them in. What about permits? I can ask the DMV for a one day pass and 8 hours later I am at home. I got to say that money is nice to have..... But I could do it with only 100$... The only reason I wont do it is that I would need a place to store it since my parents would kill me if I brought home another car.

Lets just say I have a week off right? I go there and you give me the slip... Would it be ok to sleep in my truck and work on it for a week. A WEEK! Then I bus my brother there and drive her home. IS THAT POSiiisBLE?

Dang! you must be good looking then...

I got it off this one. As long as its not rusted, kinked, you can fix it. If its rusted leave it. Kinked..... You can probably bend it back but its very frail and my snap. If you break the bolts you can replace them with some ford falcon trim bolts. http://www.mrgusa.com/pdfs/40-43mclips.pdf yep...

Not trying to be a dick... But last time I checked at the dealer they did not supply them anymore. It took maybe 6 620 to find an ok one. Had 3 of them but rusted, Was gonna make one good one out of the three I had. Threw them away since I didn't need them anymore.
